Wimberely

Bill read about this great swimming hole called the "blue hole" in Wimberely, Texas. He convinced me to come with him to try it out. We found the blue hole but it was closed for a private party - who would have known you could close a swimming hole. So we went down the road a little to the river and jumped in. The boys had a great time splashing in the water. I guess we will have to make another trip down there soon to see the blue hole.The water was so clear!

Brayden "graduates" frrom school

Brayden loves his preschool and he loved his teacher Ms. Gwyneth. He had such a blast learning and playing with all his friends. Brayden and Kate walking in.

The class - 3 boys, 7 girls

Best Friends

So Brayden has a great best friend - Kate, who he adores. Anytime I mention that we are going to Kate's house or meeting Kate somewhere he grabs his shoes and is so motivated to get out the door he practically packs my bags. He doesn't usually talk about any of his friends but if I mention Kate he always has something to say. It's so fun to see him like someone so much.

Brotherly love

Brayden loves his little brother and the feeling from Cody is mutual. Brayden just has to look at Cody to make him smile and if he jumps up and down Cody is belly laughing. They are the best of friends already and so close. After Cody's nap was over today Brayden wanted to go get him up. He climbed the giraffe beside Cody's bed and hopped in. Cody was surprised and happy to see big brother was there.

Cody's first time at the pool

I took both the boys to Lifetime Fitness today to swim in the huge pool outside. I don't have any pictures of them at the pool because two kids and a body of water is enough for one person, I did not need to complicate things with a camera, esp. since it isn't waterproof. Here are the before pictures. Cody had a blast and loved splashing the in water and Brayden always loves the pool.

Meeko update

Meeko is settling in nicely at our house. He is super friendly and so much fun during the day. He loves being with the kids and loves Brayden picking him up and carrying him all around. He loves to play with all the kids toys and he and Lily have become good friends now too. He is a little hard to handle at night because he is constantly licking Bill and I and upsetting Lily but we are confident that he will grow out of this stage. Until then he likes to hang out in all Cody's fun spots.

Spring time

I love planting new flowers in the spring time. I am not as thrilled about watering them but they are fun to look at for awhile. Here are some pictures of the new flowers and us playing outside.

Mother's Day

Bill bought me an awesome new camera for Mother's day that I have been dying to have. It is a professional camera and takes the most amazing pictures. I can't wait to share them on the blog. Here are some from our Mother's day brunch. We went to the club with Nanny and G-daddy and the boys had fun playing outside afterwards.
